About the Book

In his first comprehensive collection of short stories, Dick Reynolds takes us on a non-stop whirlwind international tour. Set in a variety of exotic locations, these stories will captivate you from the very first line. From the sunny coast of Italy to the ancient beauty of Greece to the stunning splendor that is Norway, the author infuses his own extensive travel experience into these stories which are crafted with unmatched skill. Dick Reynolds' career as a writer began with the short story, and many of these stories gave rise to what would eventually become successful novels. If you enjoy stories that are brimming with unforgettable characters, witty dialogue and exciting plot twists, you will not be disappointed here. Each story demonstrates that Dick Reynolds not only excels at short stories, but has perfected them.
About the Author: RICHARD C. ("DICK") REYNOLDS was born in East St. Louis, Illinois and raised mainly in St. Louis, Missouri. In 1953, he enlisted in the Marine Corps as a private and retired twenty four years later as a Lieutenant Colonel. During his first twelve years, he served in infantry units at various command levels. For the second twelve years, he served in communications-electronics assignments. At the end of his military career, he also taught computer science and programming courses for two years at the George Washington University. From 1977 to 1994, Dick was a System Engineer for Hughes Aircraft Company in Fullerton, California and Brussels, Belgium. During this time, he worked on command and control system programs for Greece, Norway, and Denmark, and on air defense projects for NATO, the Arab Republic of Egypt, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. After retiring from Hughes, Dick began a fourth career-fiction writing. His forty-plus short stories have appeared in such publications as Timber Creek Review, SKYLINE Magazine, Barbaric Yawp, and Imitation Fruit Literary Journal. Two of his stories have been nominated for the Pushcart Prize. Author of five novels, Averil, My Anchor, Mayhem in Mazatlan, Nightmare in Norway, and Filling in the Triangles, Dick has recently published a fifth novel, Shattering the Triangle, that is available from Valentine Press or Amazon in soft cover. Dick is currently writing a sixth novel to be called A Desperate Measure. Dick and his wife Bernadette currently reside in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
